- 1 May 2014
This work has devised a novel method of cancelling out aliased frequency components caused by artificial light flicker, using auto-regressive (AR) modelling and pole cancellation, and has been able to construct accurate maps of the spatial distribution of heart rate and respiratory rate information from the coefficients of the AR model.
Signal-Quality Indices for the Electrocardiogram and Photoplethysmogram: Derivation and Applications to Wireless Monitoring

- Computer ScienceIEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
- 1 May 2015
A signal quality index (SQI) is presented, intended to assess whether reliable heart rates can be obtained from electrocardiogram and photoplethysmogram signals collected using wearable sensors and how an SQI can be used to reduce the error in the estimation of respiratory rate (RR) from the PPG.
Machine Learning and Decision Support in Critical Care
